Career guidance refers to services intended to assist students to make educational and occupational choices and to manage their careers. Young students, specially enrolled in vocational high schools, need programs to help them make transitions to the working world and to re-engage with further learning, and career guidance needs to be part of such programs. Teachers assume the critical roles in planning and organizing the career guidance programs in vocational high schools. The program includes career information provision, assessment and self-assessment tools, career counseling, work search, etc. In this study, we developed a research model based upon TRA(theory of reasoned action) developed by Ajzen and Fishbein to investigate the factors influencing the intention to provide career guidance services to students in vocational high schools. Based on 155 survey responses from vocational high school teachers, we show that attitude and subjective norm motivate teachers to provide career guidance services, and that attitude toward career guidance is directly influenced by self-efficacy for career guidance and burden from extra work. It was also confirmed that facilitating condition is the antecedent of self-efficacy. But contrary to our expectation, self-efficacy for career guidance has no significant effect on the intention for providing career guidance services at 5% significance level. In light of these findings, implications for theory and practice are discussed.

The departments of electricity, electron, and correspondence of the 22 industrial high schools in Gyeonggi province are selected as the subject school of this research. The result of this research is as follows. First, 11 out of 18 industrial schools currently arrange larger completion unit of special curriculum than common one, and 2 out of 4 general high schools do. Second, industrial schools reduced 2-4 units of required subjects of the departments, general high schools did 2 units. 11 out of 18 industrial schools arranged larger student's elective subjects than school's in the completion unit of common curriculum, and 3 out of 4 general high schools did. 31 out of 32 departments of 18 industrial schools arranged larger student's elective subjects than school's in the completion unit of common curriculum. Third, 4 out of 18 industrial schools used the certified textbooks for newly organized subjects. But 25 departments of 15 schools out of 36 departments of 22 schools changed the industrial departments into high-tech ones. Fourth, in the classification of the school curriculum by 3-type curriculum, 12 out of 18 industrial schools adopted employment-centered curriculum, 7 out of 18 schools did foundation-centered curriculum. 2 out of 4 general schools adopted employment-centered curriculum, 2 out of 4 schools did college preparation-centered curriculum.

Education about invention in elementary schools has thus far be conducted mostly through special activities and talented activities rather than through normal curricula. However, with the implementation of the 2007 amended curricula, invention education was reflected as a normal subject unit in the practical subject (technology and home economics) curricula, thereby laying groundwork for invention education being able to be provided through normal subject classes. Thus, at the time when invention education has been reflected as a normal subject unit, it is meaningful to research the effects of elementary school students' experience in invention education on their invention attitudes. This study sought to research the effects of elementary school students' experience or non-experience in invention education on their invention attitudes, targeting those in regional talent private schools who did not take invention talent classes, those who received invention education, and those who did not receive invention education at all. The conclusion of this study is outlined as follows. First, students' experience in invention education proved to be positive in boosting their invention attitude, and continued invention education experience like with students in regional talent invention schools significantly boosted their invention attitudes. Second, considering that students' actual experience in invention education had positive effects on their invention attitudes, the reflection of invention education in the amended curricula was found to be very desirable in improving elementary students' attitudes about invention. Third, according to gender, male students' invention attitude level was found to be higher than that of female students, suggesting that male students more worked on computers, electronic (smart) devices and machines in daily life, leading them to further develop invention attitudes.
